| Anmerkungen |
The Dillkreis was a rural administrative district in Nassau-Dillenburg, and like hundreds of similar German county treasuries in 1923, its Kreiskommunalkasse was forced into the absurd position of issuing emergency currency simply to meet payroll. The Beck'sche Druckerei in nearby Herborn — a regional commercial printer with no particular currency background — handled the job with whatever stock and typesetting capacity it had available at the time.
By the time million-mark denominations were being printed by local county offices, the Reichsbank's own supply chain had collapsed under the volume demands of hyperinflation. This note existed for days, possibly hours, before its face value became economically meaningless.
